Although GF locations/sites may be limited, I think it's great that each year we see "somemthing", be it minor or major GF/gangster related.  For some of us, The Soprano's tour; The Gangster Convention in Chicago seemed appropriate for our group,and I would have never known about the Moshulu in Philly, hadn't it been posted. These meets we've planned in the last couple years just seemed to add that certain touch applicable to our great group here. TIS

Mig, Welcome back. We know this was a most difficult time for you and your family. Mostly, on this thread, we're eagerly anticipating the rest of the Philadelphia photos people took. What's been posted so far looks quite nice, and I am always up for seeing more photos of the crew. I seem to have unintentionally pulled a "Barzini" - managing to avoid being photographed (at least in what's already been posted). I did, though, notice my elbow making an appearance in a photo while we were eating cheesesteaks. My camera "misfired" after taking one shot at La Veranda.  But, at least, there are additional photos that will (hopefully) soon be posted. Signor V. -------------------- "Show yourself, Claus!!"

Well, I went to Walmart after work to pick up my pictures, along with a few other things. I picked up the other things and browsed around a bit before I went to the photo counter. Well.....I told the girl I wanted to pick up my pictures that were to be ready today. What happens at that moment??? All the lights go out and the store, along with computers, cash registers, credit card machines, etc., and it is totally dark. They announced that everyone has to go outside. We were to leave our carts in the store. I left and went outside and "heard" there was a power outage in the area due to some construction going on. I waited a few minutes, but ended up leaving. I didn't want to spend my evening hanging out at Walmart. I'll go back tomorrow and will make sure to go to the photo counter first. :p TIS

Ok, let me know if you can see this picture ok? Not a red x I hope. I'm afraid a lot of them are light and/or blurry. This one little Ms Cardi took and is probably the best of the bunch. I think I'll hire her on the next trip. Anyway, I'll post a couple more if this shows up.

Did you notice that sign at the outdoor market by Geoff and the oranges: "NO PICKING" And just how is one supposed to buy these oranges?  Signor V. -------------------- "Show yourself, Claus!!"
